Membership of NPCTAG includes representatives from a range of hospital pharmacy disciplines and other relevant specialist groups, MHRA and NIHR. The group's objectives are to provide advice to NHS pharmacy services, to the NIHR Clinical Research Networks Coordinating Centre, to support education & training of pharmacy staff, and to provide a forum for communication with MHRA about clinical trial issues.</p><p><strong>Co-Chairs </strong> | <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Wendy Spicer</a> | <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Sarah Pacey</a> </br> <strong>Secretary</strong> | <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Tim Root</a>

Viviennne McDonald is currently undertaking the NPA Level 3 Diploma (NVQ) (QCF) in Pharmacy Service Skills. One of the specific criteria suggestions is to include a report on receiving a clinical trial prescription. "I have tried without any success, to locate information on this subject and whilst looking at the internet found the web page for The National Pharmacy Clinical Trials Advisory Group. It would be much appreciated if you could offer any suggestions on where I could source some pertinent information on this subject. Thank you."
